Bartholo-who? That’s a lot of name for this little guy. Not that he is tiny exactly at 38 pounds, but when you meet him you will see that he has a smaller presence. Our little Bartie boy is more likely to be found on the sidelines observing the action than in the midst of the fray.

Yep, I’m cute and I know it! At under 25 pounds, I pack a lot of cuteness in a compact package. They say I am an optimist and I am always looking at the brighter side of things. Like being at the shelter. I see it as an opportunity to meet lots of new folks and dogs and practice my face washing skills. Sometimes I get to go out and play. Toys are great!

I need only a few minutes of your time and you’ll see we could be perfect together. Simply perfect! I’ve recently shed my mommy apron and now I have my sights on finding someone I can love. I’m a very gentle, kind hearted lady who can be a touch shy out of the gate but then, BAM! I am starting to smile and rubbing into you!! Quiet and thoughtful, I arrived mighty, mighty dirty (almost oily) so I was promptly plopped down in the tub for a scrub-a-dub. I should have been given a blue ribbon for my bravery but instead I was simply told I was an excellent lady and as sweet as they come. Wonderful with other dogs, I’m more apt to first hang on the sidelines but then join in the fun for a easy going wrestling match. A mid-sized lady with a solid, black as night jacket, I was one of the photographers favorites and a “pick of the day!” Can’t ask for a better recommendation if I do say so myself. Come on by today and ask for Olivia. You can’t go wrong with me by your side! I am a 1.5 year old lab. For more information call 843-398-4402 or email darlingtonhumanepets@ gmail.com.
